a good decaf blend from short sleeves coffee is built from caturra, bourbon, and typica varieties grown in the amazonas region of peru, processed using the honey method, which leaves some fruit mucilage on the bean during drying and contributes to its sweetness. the result is a decaf that tastes like it belongs, with caramel, honey, honeycomb, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate all present. because honey processing tends to produce a fuller body and natural sweetness, this works well in any brew method where those qualities can come through, including espresso, filter, or a french press.
